Advance warning - the only trains to Charlton station on those days are a half-hour interval service between Gillingham and Victoria.

Thanks rick journey to and back home has been disrupted for the last 3 years.

Not sure if they will manage an extra down train to take the Gillingham fans away, but a half hourly service is pretty inadequate for a match day. Given all Lewisham routes presumably have to go into Victoria there probably isn’t a lot of spare capacity.

Just as well we aren't in the Prem....can you imagine what it would be like with crowds of 25,000+.

It would have been sorted pdq because the extra road traffic would have created a gridlock for miles.

I thought the traffic was very light today. Normally we have to queue for almost a mile to get off the M25 onto the A2 at Junction 2 & I thought it would be worse today with everyone wanting to go to Bluewater, but at 1.20pm we sailed down the inside lane & don't stop once.

We were then at the Sun in the Sands roundabout at 1.35pm & usually there is mayhem but again no queues at all.
